In Los Angeles, in addition to customizing personal services for himself, An Feng also accompanies Katilina's work. The filming went very smoothly, An Feng went to visit the filming locations a few times, as a major shareholder, this is a little happy, to see a group of beauties and still above board.

The only downside is that Katilina is a bit procrastinating, although this is a rare opportunity for her to show her strength, but she prefers to lie in bed, go to bed late, and get up late to work. At first, An Feng thought she was playing a big name, but later found out that she was lazy, and when her hobby turned to work, her interest slowly disappeared.

An Feng can't do anything about this, because the two have the same smell, and when Katilina goes to work, he goes to see his two properties in Los Angeles. The research work of Mike Case's group has been relatively stable, with small breakthroughs, but it has not progressed as fast as An Feng expected. But it was diet pills that made a sample.

Anfeng used to provide two types of formulas, one prescription drug and one over-the-counter drug, mainly for different policies and consumer needs. Both drugs have obvious effects on weight loss, of course, the user must cooperate with an appropriate amount of exercise, otherwise it will be useless to take the magic medicine.

After a small number of samples come out, the next step is to conduct animal testing, commonly known as catching mice and playing with slices.

In terms of the production of weight loss drugs, the review in the United States is very strict, and the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) has vetoed the production of any weight loss drugs for more than ten consecutive years, which can be imagined the government's regulatory strength, but due to the skyrocketing number of obese people in the United States, the FDA has begun to loosen its mouth in the past few years, and the FDA has approved several new weight loss drugs.

The market for diet pills is still very large, among which the over-the-counter drugs he provides have almost no harm to the body, and they can maintain a normal body shape after a certain amount of exercise. Advanced techniques are not the same as miracles.

The results of the experimental team are very encouraging, and the inspectors tested with the most stringent methods of the FDA, and the hazard index in all aspects is still the lowest among the weight loss drugs on the market. What Anfeng now needs to consider is which pharmaceutical company to license it to, or continue to finance it with patents.

This is the first good news since the new year, and although it has not yet produced benefits, the pressure to repay the loan of nearly 100 million dollars is much less. Then the second piece of good news was Tyran, these workaholics are working hard, advertising is flying all over the sky, and I heard that there are still people working overtime on Christmas Eve.

The first order of Tailan and regional dealers was signed today, Anfeng also attended the ceremony, the dealer is an old customer, and has cooperated for many years, so he is very confident in Tailan's products, although the content of the advertisement makes people feel a little exaggerated, but the Ministry of Agriculture approved it, it should be no problem.

The agreement signed is 50,000 US dollars, which is not much, but after all, it is the first customer of the new product, which is worth celebrating. All the fertilizers purchased by the dealers are suitable for wheat. The latitude of the United States is similar to that of China, so there is also a saying that spring wheat in the north and winter wheat in the south are coming, and dealers in many areas have begun to stock up.

After the signing was completed, An Feng listened to CEO Bray Hawk report on some company affairs in the office.

The more Hawke spoke, the more ashamed An Feng became, and only now did he learn that he planted tomatoes in March and April, and then it was his turn to grow corn in April and soybeans in April and May, which are the top three in U.S. agricultural production. If you tell others that he has developed high-efficiency agricultural fertilizers, but you don't even understand these things......

But An Feng is very capable, he skipped the details and asked, "You mean, we have received more orders this year than in previous years?" ”

Hawke is a little proud: "The increase of about 30%, although the effect has not yet been reflected, but our propaganda has worked. It's just that the impact has both negative and positive, the negative view is generally that we are talking nonsense and misleading consumers, while the positive is that there is research on the product, and it is considered a rare technological breakthrough. ”

An Feng said with satisfaction: "The first step is very good! ”

Hawke smiled and said: "However, the conflict between these two points of view makes people curious about our products, and the old customers in the past are naturally supportive, and some new customers will order some back in a curious mind." I think in half a year, the expressions on people's faces will be wonderful. ”

"They will." An Feng said that the effect of this kind of propaganda is the same as the hype, and the debate between the positive and negative sides can arouse the curiosity of the masses even more.

……

With the Spring Festival just a few days away, Katilina finished her work as director of the February issue, and before packing up, An Feng accompanied her to the Chinese consulate.

The reason is very simple, she heard that An Feng was going back to China for a few days, and she was also pestering to go.

Then she went to ask for a visa, Catilina is Colombian, but has American nationality, and it is not too difficult to obtain a tourist visa in this regard, after all, China has been engaged in reform and opening up, and the Chinese visa officer does not have the concerns of the American visa officer, and the American goes to China to tear up the passport book and disappear?

At present, more residents of developing countries go to developed countries to tear up their passports, and there is no going back, right? Of course, if China rises up in the future, this scene will definitely happen. But for now, this scene is very strange: if it is discovered, it will make headlines and successfully stop the Wangs from invading Earth.

……

On Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone gathers around and wraps dumplings with dumpling skins bought from Chinatown. There were a lot of guests at home, and a few little cubs were also there, and An Feng was very puzzled by how Xiaoyu and the other children solved the communication problem. He observed, the little rabbit cubs were around the table playing dumpling skin, Xiaoyu spoke Chinese in his mouth, Andy spoke English in his mouth, neither side understood, and then gestured to each other, back and forth, actually understood.

The Landau family also participates in the dumpling-making activity, and the Sassen family comes except for Joanna, who has already gone to school. Joanna's mother, Kelly, was very skillful, and soon a small plate of results was displayed in front of everyone. She smiled and said, "My mother used to teach me some things, but I haven't done them for a long time, and I'm rusty." ”

An Feng looked at it and praised: "It's not worse than my parents' sister's skills." ”

My sister saw it and said, "It's really good!" ”

"Look, everyone is praising you!" Frank smiled and kissed Kelly on the forehead.

"Uncle, what do you think my bag looks like?" Xiaoyu's girl pulled his sleeve and showed a crumpled dumpling in her hand.

"This cat is so pretty." An Feng said.

Xiaoyu pouted: "This is a little rabbit." ”

"Ahaha, what a pretty bunny." An Feng smiled embarrassedly.

"Hey, look at ours." Over there, Andy, Harvey and Mia were not to be outdone, and showed the animal dumplings in their hands to An Feng.

Although I couldn't tell what it was, and the dumpling filling was leaking, An Feng gave the children a lot of encouragement: "Very good, so beautiful!" ”

"Yay! Tonight we eat it. The three hairy children cheered, and seeing that Xiaoyu couldn't understand, they opened their mouths and made a gesture of eating.

Xiaoyu understood, and also said, "Uncle, I want to eat it too." ”

"It's going to happen." An Feng said with a smile.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone gathered to eat dumplings, and the little rabbits were happy to bite the dumpling skin that had been scattered. Then it was a sumptuous dinner prepared according to domestic conventions, and considering that some guests were very curious about the Spring Festival, An Feng's family pondered and prepared this large table of Chinese food several days in advance. Local specialties, as well as dim sum, fresh soup, etc. are varied, a table is not enough, and the back is simply opened in the backyard to make a self-service Chinese New Year's Eve party.

Spend Chinese New Year's Eve in a Western-style buffet, and everyone freely serves dishes to pick up the meal, but there is also a little taste of Chinese and Western. Guests are full of praise that although Chinese and Western food preferences are different, and Americans prefer sweet, there is always someone to find a favorite taste due to the wide variety and flavor of Chinese food.

The old cowboy Mark was obviously very interested in the liquor that his father and brother-in-law were drinking, and under An Feng's translation, they also poured a glass of 56 degrees red star two-pot head for the old cowboy, and as a result, Mark, known as the "beer king", was bold and had a cup of two-pot head, and his whole face instantly became red like a lantern.

Wine expert Frank Sassen was also intrigued and asked Mark, "How does it feel?" ”

Mark, in his dark-bellied character, smiled slightly and gave a thumbs up.

Frank also took a small glass, and when he brought it to his mouth, he smelled a pungent smell of alcohol, and took a small sip with a frown, but he stuck out his tongue as a result.

"Chinese wine without ice is terrifying!" Here is the master's comment.

As a result, more people were curious, seeing that the father and brother-in-law sent peanuts to drink so coolly, they also tried, but with the experience of the past, these guys added ice to the liquor, and the stimulating taste subsided a lot, but they didn't know how drunk with ice, and they all unconsciously drank the second goods with their necks around their necks and singing about the brothers.

After the Chinese New Year's Eve countdown in Los Angeles time, the last show came: fireworks.

Setting off firecrackers is easy for the police in the small town to mistake it for a shooting, and there is too much garbage that is not easy to clean, An Feng only bought some fireworks. Moved the props to the backyard and placed them neatly, everyone picked up their cameras one by one, An Feng lit the fireworks in order, and ran over with everyone screaming.

With the sound of sizzling and fireworks, the night sky overhead resounded with a crackling explosion, and suddenly bloomed with colorful and gorgeous flowers...... In this gorgeous fireworks show, An Feng and others congratulated each other on the New Year, and the foreigners were also happy with a lame "Happy New Year", and some people shouted "Hello brothers" later, it is estimated that the 56-degree Chinese wine just now has not brought them back to their senses......
